Efficient light-emitting diodes based on in-situ self-assembled perovskite nanocrystals

We introduce a simple and low-cost approach—drop-coating method—for preparation of in-situ self-assembled perovskite nanocrystals for efficient light-emitting diodes (LEDs). The photoluminescence (PL) spectrum of the self-assembled NFPI4 nanocrystals thin film prepared by the drop-coating method shows blue shift compared with that of the typical NFPI4 thin film prepared by the spin-coating method. In addition, the PL spectra of these self-assembled nanocrystals are tuned from 765 to 725 nm by changing usage amounts of the perovskite precursor solution. More importantly, efficient LEDs with external quantum efficiencies up to 6.8% are achieved based on these self-assembled NFPI4 nanocrystals.
